Florida inmate's escape thwarted after wild jailbreak

WESH — A man arrested on suspicion of theft is back behind bars after escaping from Florida's Orange City Police Department through the ceiling.

Police said Michael Caruso, 31, asked to use the men's room at the station, locked himself in and then made a hole in the ceiling. He was then able to get into the attic where he removed the attic fan and climbed out.

Police said he ran to a nearby home and started begging for a ride away from the police.
